Meals By Grace delivers “break bags” to supplement breakfast and lunch for students using a home delivery system. the bags are given out on Fall, Winder, Spring, and Summer breaks. The students who receive free or reduced meals through school would not have breakfast or lunch on the breaks without these “break bags”. Currently, we have 68 families on our home delivery program totaling 200 children. Every 120 bags made will supply a week’s worth of breakfast and lunch to each child during these times away from school. Please consider giving if you can.
